TSOTM Apr 2022: Ding-Dong!
Our T-Shirt of the Month for April 2022, made of 100% organic cotton by a worker-owned co-operative, and supporting grassroots labour unions in South Asia. This month's design commemorates the epic struggle of mining communities in Britain against the Conservative government of Margaret Thatcher in 1984-5. Miners went on strike against pit closures, while large numbers of women, especially miners' wives, played active roles supporting the strike and enabling it to continue for almost a year until it was eventually defeated. When Thatcher died in April 2013, street parties broke out around the country, especially in former mining communities, and the song "Ding-Dong The Witch Is Dead" reached #2 in the charts.
